How To Run FILE.SH From Mouse Clicks
I'm a pentester and a programmer. New to Linux. I am hooked now. I love it. As stated.. I am new to Linux though, but catching on quickly.
My question is probably simple to most; I have a script.sh script file, and I want to be able to launch it by simple clicking on it. The only way I see to run this is by either pasting the path to a shell window or placing the file in the /bin directory and then typing the name in anywhere I am. How is the ladder possible?
You can also put it in the /usr/bin or /usr/sbin directory and to add on that,
you can also do some shell command linking. On the netgh0st site i saw a
little tiny guide to do that.
But can't you just right click the shell file, then choose which program to use,
then choose /bin/sh as the program it should usually start? That's what i would
think of when we're talking about using your GUI to start shell files.

try right click > properties> make file executeable
then you can run them from clicking.
thats how i used my WPA_supp/dhcpcd ath0 script before i figured out how to make it autorun on startup
In Backtrack 3 beta.
On kde desktop right click ---->Create new --->Link Application
Set name of the link
In permission Tab set "is executable"
In "Application" tab browse command shell script to execute; for example
/root/test.sh
If you want see output go in right down option "Advanced option" and set the following:
"Run in terminal" and "Do not close when comand exits"
Bye.

We do NOT allow external links. We only allow "internal" links to our forums. See PM's.
or
chmod +x filename.sh
in this case we're talking

Tried that.. it doesn't run. Only runs if I open up a shell window and drag/drop paste path to it and launch it that way.Originally Posted by MaXe Legend

Is this an indication to possibly a bigger issue with my BT3 setup? Does everyone else have the capability of launching .sh files upon flagging them as executable?
This method seems to perform what I need. Thanks for the tips and suggestions peps! Much appreciated! Thank you.
